Wound Drainage Types 🩹❤️‍🩹

🤍 Serous: Clear, watery discharge

❤️ Sanguineous: Bloody discharge

🩷 Serosanguineous: Blood + water

💚 Purulent: Infected discharge

👉 What is serous drainage? It is PLASMA without proteins. Plasma is the liquid part of your blood.

⚠️ NCLEX Tip: Diabetic patients should be monitored regularly for pressure sores and wounds due to peripheral neuropathy and slowed wound healing.

Happy Studying! XO Nurse Amanda ❤️

different types of pimple patches 🩹
i love pimple patches because they help to prevent me from involuntarily picking at my skin and causing worser scars, but did you know there are different types of patches? instead of the basic hydrocolloid, the market was able to create other patches to treat acne and pimples in more specific ways
